Great back to back to back DJ session on the @dubsmugglers soundsystem at this year's @dimensionsfestival in Croatia, alongside @floatingpoints, Tom Smith from the ace Cosmic Slop night in Leeds, ( https://www.facebook.com/groups/211633616863/ ) all held together by the mighty MC Kwasi. We all played vinyl, one or two tunes each for most of the session, with a slightly longer set each towards the end.

Massive thanks to everyone involved!

A six hour DJ session from Manchester's Band on the Wall alongside the incredible @tarzsa_williams, hosted by MC Kwasi. 

Mostly uptempo styles on this one, and some mega energy on the dance floor. Had some great feedback during the night about Tarzsa. Big shout to all the venue crew, regulars and first timers!

Stepping up with the second offering for Church's limited white label 10" series, is a pair who you can usually find behind the counter at Peckham's Rye Wax. Warming up winter with two fine UK house cuts, No Hurry open's up on a groovier tip while Juliette takes things a little bouncier with rolling percussion and beautifully spliced synths and vocal layers. Out now (go cop that), press play on this i-D premiere.

Today is a great day and a fantastic present from you to me.

As a Happy Holidays present to you I've decided to give you a DL of my previously unheard Sade edit, Shelter Me, one of my new favourites.
My sincere thanks to you all for being on this incredible musical journey with me and I'm looking forward to a fantastic 2015 and want to wish you a very Happy New Year.
Keep on dancin'!

Shelter Me [LNTG Rework]

If you are a techno person and you listen deeply into this music you will hear the beginnings of one side of my inspiration to make electronic dance music.  This is the music I grew up listening to.  When I hear some of the reactions from some of my American brothers.. musically they actually thought I was living around the corner from them - which I was, musically. It's funny, we could have almost communicated the same then as you can online now through music. Brothers if you are reading this - don't forget it - we still have an open line of communication. Some people think it's all about the $.

Unadulterated summer sleaziness with added flashes of funk and disco drops.  Lose your mind and your ass will follow...

Ralph Lawson - Sounds Like Summer

Diggin' in the archives and unearthed this one for you. Early MJ live set from back in the day. Vintage vinyl journey. 

Mushroom Jazz Live at Club Kaya - 10_9_95

Having written a piece on Precious Hall which you can read above(see the blog button), I thought you might enjoy the first part of my set there on Oct 5. 

I was playing alongside Toshio Matsuura who as I walked in the club was playing some electronic bits that sounded so heavy, I threw a few in myself… Hope you enjoy.
